Best Bang for the Buck
Hello everyone, this is my first post. I would like to know your opinions on how to get the most power for my money. I have a 1993 Dodge Viper RT/10. It has many exterior mods including 97' GTS wheels/tires, chrome side pipe covers, 97' GTS hood, double bubble hardtop and other msc. items. Totaling around 30k, but now I am looking for more power. Just want to know what you guys think i could do.

How many bucks? That will help determine the amount of bang or whether it will be more of a little pop.

Cheapest power is of course nitrous. But if you have a good chunk of change to drop then twin turbo is the way to go!

1) Performance driving school.
2) Aftermarket exhaust - either keep the muffler and lose the cats, or vice-versa. If you cut too much out, you'll go deaf.
3) Gen 1s respond to bigger TBs and roller rockers.
4) Put all new bushings in the wishbones and follow the service manual procedures for ballast and torquing in detail.
